User talk:71.255.90.247

Your host, pool-71-255-90-247.nwrknj.east.verizon.net (71.255.90.247), is part of a pool of dynamically allocated addresses and is registered to Verizon Internet Services. It may be shared by multiple users, so you might receive messages on this page that were not intended for you.

Applying an indefinite block to this IP is not appropriate, unless it is a soft block, because the IP address will later be reallocated to a different, unrelated, and unsuspecting user, thereby impairing access to Wikipedia in an inappropriate fashion. Caution should be used when blocking this IP or reverting its contributions without checking.

The best approach is to determine the CIDR IP numerical address range and make a higher-level decision to soft-block the entire range. http://www.arin.net/ (for approximately North America) and related sites can help to identify that range. Caution is advised when applying a range block as other Wikipedians, both registered and otherwise, may be affected.

In the event of vandalism from this IP address, abuse reports can be sent to its network administrator for investigation.
